It's too bad that "opportunities to learn Arabic" isn't listed as one of the pluses for living in a smaller city....As you would be one of the only foreigners there, it would be easier to practice with locals (supplemented by formal instruction) than it would in Riyadh or Dammam...

Opportunities to socialise with Saudis are limited, in Hail or Riyadh. Most have limited social contact outside their own family and kinship groupings.

True, but I believe that Westerners living in Hail and Buraydah get more invites with Saudis than those living in Riyadh, if only for the fact that they are such a novelty in those areas...
